Izzo is pure class

[STEVEHOLT]

Literally said the better team won today.

gave them ALL the credit and said it wasn't what MSU didnt do, it was what MTSU did.

 

[CorduroyG]

lupe must be very upset

 

[Briancuse]

He really is, but like someone said in another thread, he was due for one these.

 

[OrangeXtreme]

He just joined an exclusive club:

 

[SoBeCuse]

I don't even think they played that bad. Just ran into a buzzsaw.

 

[realorange]

He also told a reporter he was asking a stupid(foolish?) question and he(Izzo) was right.

 

[tbonezone]

this defeat really backs up what calipari was saying sunday about the importance of seeding. the spartans shouldn't have been on that line and the committees logic cost them big time.

Eh. They have nobody to blame but themselves.

C'mon, they should have been spoon fed a 16 seed cause why, they are MSU? If they can't beat a 15 seed, then maybe they and the Big10 are not quite what we imagined them to be. You can't quibble about 1 seed line.

They lost to a team they should have trounced. That's the simplicity of it.

 

[RhymesWithOrange]

The way his team handled that loss told you all you need to know about Tom Izzo. Everything starts with him, and they handled it with nothing but class.

 

[jec1521]

BTW, Izzo was gracious and gave all the credit ti MTSU, unlike Archie Miller, who said it "wasn't really anything they did, to be honest" and spoke nonstop about missed point blank shots. Maybe the fact we are taller than you at every position had something to do with that, douche.

 

[Ghost]

Eh, that's what most coaches would say. Archie Miller though is a douche. That whole family is. Calipari too.

Roy would cry a lot.

 

[Briancuse]

Roy would cry a lot.

I wouldn't put Cal in the douche class, Ive actually met him, he is a nice guy.

No you must be mistaken only JB would do something like that

 

[dollarbill44]

Hearing about how great the Millers are at coaching was getting a little old. Glad there aren't any left in this tourney.

 

[creatorsgam]

Roy would cry a lot.

With time outs in his pocket.

In other words, they needed to be facing a 16 seed to win? It happens from time to time. It doesn't mean anything with regard to seeding.

 

[Ghost]

Eh, I feel like he's all over the place. Sometimes seems great, sometimes seems like a douche. The year they almost lost to ND (was that last year???? lol), he came off like a moron in a lot of the interviews.

FWIW Boeheim said the same

He likes to play to the media sometimes, I don't think hes a bad guy.

Forreal. It's not like they should have played Southern and they played Kentukcy instead...

That fair - I don't know any of these people. I assume they're all different people off the court.

Roy's probably never cried a real tear in his life for all I know...And I suspect he hasn't!

 

[Briancuse]

Mtsu looks a lot better than a 15 seed, but still you have to play the game, perhaps winning the big ten title took something out of them.

When he coached the Nets he used to come into a rest that I worked at a lot, we talked bball a few times, he knew I was a huge Cuse fan, had nothing but good things to say about us and Jb.
